an interest in it's New York advertising

What those two gentlemen don't know
about the science of advertising is not in
the repertory of any agent in New York

sCRIBNER'S MAGAzINE-CharIes scribner's
Sons, New York
The prevailing interest in all kinds of
sea going craft justifes the space given
in the May number of this monthly to the
steamship. The development from Full
toms experiment, the Clement, to the
Etruria, an ocean steamer crossing to
Liverpool in six days, five and 4 half
hours, is calculated to Inspire wonderful
respect for mans genius. In illustrating
the article the marvellous feats of instan-
taneous photography are shown and these
creatures of mans hand seem to walk the
water like thing OF life. If weary of
measurements and diagrams the reader
has only to turn to Thackeray's unpuo-
lished letters for pleasant diversion, these
being models of all that is pleasant in
epistolary intercourse. can Ocean
Graveyard" is q description Of Sable Is
land off the coast OF Nova Scotia, and
history of the many disasters renders the
dismal title singularly appropriate.

This is new monthly issued by Robert

there seems to be no question that in its

tains excellent advice to newspaper cor
respondents, showing by example the best
to be made of events which come to their
knowledge. James w. Clarke contrib
utes an article on interviewing as al art,

check with two handsome figures from
the Office of the New York Herald. The
law of libel is to be ably discussed by
Samuel Merrill if the first paper is fair

THE FORUM-Lorettus S. Metcalf. Editor.
Forum Publishing Company, 81 Fifth avenue,
New York.
Fully abreast of the times is the Fo-
1um, and the topics of the May number
are those which arrest the attention of
the thinking world. This number opens
with treatise ON the laws OF marriage,
oy Judge Bennett. From statistics furn-
ished and incidents recited, the writer
leaves no doubt in the mind of the candid
reader that there is an increasing neces-
sity for a reformation of the marriage
laws of this country, such as will lessen
the number of divorces and prevent many
of the evils which now spring up in mar
ried life. Andrew D. White, than whom
few are better qualified to speak of the
necessities of student life, makes an elo-
quent plea for fraternities in colleges as
means of reducing certain inevitable
evils to minimum and producing good
in many ways.

GEN. LEN WALLACE.

We are glad that Gen. Lew Wallace Is
coming to Springfield to lecture about Tur-
key and the Turks. We have heard the
lecture and can assure our readers that il
is, IN itself. exceedingly interesting and in
structive. But our people will be- glad to
see General Wallace, As well a to hear him,
for he has not only acquired great fame
as soldier and As the representative of this
country in the Ottoman Empire, but he is
today one of the most conspicuous literary
men of this period. He has not written the
great American novel, it is true, for the
great novels he has written are not Ameri

Cen Lew Wallace is conceded to be the
great American novelist Of the period. and
1t is a matter of fact that his books have
created profound sensation in all parts of
the civilized world.
But more than this is true. Gen.

four or five copies in our public library are
cut all the time, and the same would be
true if there were score of copies: every
body-Christian Hebrew, iniidel or heather
reads the book and is the wiser and bet
ter for it. People IN many cases read it at
a single sitting if they can. Many man
has devoted whole night to it: and few
have read it without receiving profound
moral impression. Indeed. many men have
been changed in heart and life from its pc
rusal.
And We may add that General Wallace is
very much admired as man. lie talks
well. charming all who come in contact
with him by his natural graces and his ac-
luired accomplishments. The bound vol

very fine portrait of the General, which
does him full justice. He should have a
crowded house when he appears on
Springfield platform.

The Farm and FircSide managers in
this city. have sent out circulars. advising
the people that, congress having passed an
act appropriating $4,000. annually, 10 each
State and Territory. for the purpose of eS-
tablishing in each an agricultural expert
msnt station, quiet effort is being made
in this State, 10 have this appropriation
placed under the control of the State uni
Versity, and stating that there is very great
danger that, unless the farmers of Ohio act
promptly and earnestly. the legislature will
be induced 10 place the control of this fund
in the hands of the university trustees.
among VIII pm there is not one fGrmcr, and
thus destroy the existing State agricultural
experiment station, which, under its man
agement by practical farmers, has done SUI h
good work for the farmers of Ohio during
tn past four years. Ii seems that tie Ohio
a practically unanimous vote, There being
bu; twelve dissenting voices re-
uueSted congress to give Ohi0'S share of
this experiment station fund To the exist
ing Ohio Agricultural Experiment station,
and that. at the annual Agricultural con-
vention. held in the senate chamber last
January. resolution to the same effect was
adopted. after vigorous discussion, by
vote of 81 10 Z. In both the State Grange
and the Agricultural convention the uniyer-
sity was represented by able spokesmen
bit Notwithstanding their most earnest ELL
deavors they were thus outvoted. These
gatherings are representative in the high
est degree, of the intelligent farmers OF
ohio, and they show that these farmers are
practically unit in their demand that this,
their fund, shall remain in their control.
The attention of Senator Pringle and of
Representative Rawlins IS respectfully
called a. these facts.

Springfield people are all proud Of our
beautiful cemetery-Ferncliff- with
good reason. and they take pleasure, very
properly, in taking their visitors and friends
from abroad out to see it, A few weeks
hence it will be clothed in its bright green
Spring suit. and with the new lake spark
ling in the sunshine and the fountains play
ing. il will be a very attractive sight.
1t seems necessary, just now, that our
pride in Ferncliff should take a metallic
turn. Money Is required. As was suggested
in a communication in Fridays REPUB-
Lie, 10 keep the grounds and avenues in
good condition. but a good round sum is
now needed for the prosecution of an en-
entirely new enterprise, the points of which
we will outline. The trustees have recent
ly purchased an additional tract of land
from the Moffet heirs. the new tract run
ming from the north line of the tract be-
longing to the cemetery, in the rear of the
Moffet property, nOrthward, to the road run
ming westward from Plum street past the
Snow hill school house. This ground runs
from the old cemetery line eastward to a
tract of ground sixty feet wide, which eX
tends the entire length of the new purchase
on the east side, and which belongs to
the city, having-been set aside to be used as
public street, and as it cannot now be so
used, and is OF no account. whatever, 10
the city, many citizens think the council
would do well TO turn 1t over to the trus-
tees of Fern"liff, to be used for cemetery
purposes.
But through the new grounds runs a little
stream, in gulley, and it is important that
this should be covered with a culvert. This
enterprise can only be pushed to a success
full conclusion by money subscribed by our
citizens. and aS il is ali absolute necessity
that the stream should be covered as pro-
posed we hope that the matter will be
taken up at once by President Bacon. of the
board of trustees, Mr.. Oliver 5. Kelly, of
the executive committee, and others. and
presented to our citizens for their co-opera-
tion. and that these gentlemen will be cor /
daily and generously received.
